摘要
目的观察血清miRNA-21与糖尿病肾病(diabetic nephropathy,DN)不同分期中医证型及实验室指标的相关性。方法将符合纳入标准的2型糖尿病(type 2 diabetes mellitus,T2DM)及DN患者60例分为T2DM、DNⅢ期、DNⅣ期、DNⅤ期共4组,每组15人,同时设立健康对照组15人,收集各组四诊资料,进行中医辨证分型;并检测各组血清miRNA-21表达水平及血肌酐(Scr)、尿素氮(BUN)、胱抑素C(CysC)、血清白蛋白(Alb)、胆固醇(CHOL)、甘油三酯(TG)、肾小球滤过率估计值(eGFR)、尿蛋白定量、血液流变学等指标。结果 DNⅤ期、DNⅣ期、DNⅢ期血清miRNA-21明显高于健康组(P<0.05);DNⅣ期较DNⅢ期增高(P<0.05);T2DM组与健康组无显著性差异(P>0.05),DNⅤ期较DNⅣ期明显下降(P<0.05)。中医辨证方面,阴虚燥热证比例最低,气阴两虚证次之(P<0.05);脾肾气虚证及阴阳两虚证比例最高(P<0.05);脾肾气虚证与阴阳两虚证无显著性差异(P>0.05)。血清miRNA-21表达情况,气阴两虚、脾肾气虚及阴阳两虚组均明显升高(P<0.05);其中脾肾气虚组与阴阳两虚组升高更明显(P<0.05);但脾肾气虚组与阴阳两虚组比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。标证中,湿证者为16例,占26.7%,痰证15例,占25%,瘀证为29例,占48.3%,瘀证所占比例最高(P<0.05);瘀证组血清miRNA-21升高更明显(P<0.05);湿证组与痰证组比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。相关性研究结果显示,血清miRNA-21表达与DNⅢ期、DNⅣ期患者BUN、Cr、Cysc及血沉K值呈正直线相关,与eGFR呈显著负直线相关;对于DNⅤ期,血清miRNA-21仅与血沉K值呈显著正直线相关。结论血清miRNA-21在DN不同分期中表达差异明显,血清miRNA-21与DN患者某些实验室指标之间可能存在一定的相关性。
Objective To observe the correlation between serum miRNA-21 and diabetic nephropathy(DN)in different stages of TCM syndromes and laboratory indexes. Methods Sixty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(type 2 diabetes mellitusus,T2 DM)and DN were divided into 4 groups,15 in each group,and 15 healthy people in control group. Collect the data of four diagnoses in each group,and carry out TCM syndrome differentiation and typing. Serum miRNA-21 expression and serum creatinine(Scr),urea nitrogen(BUN),cystatin C(CysC),serum albumin(Alb),cholesterol(CHOL),triglyceride(TG),glomerular filtration rate estimated value(eGFR),urinary protein quantification and blood rheology were checked in each group. Results The level of serum miRNA-21 in DN V stage、DNⅣstage、DNⅢstage was significantly higher than that in normal group(P<0.05);DNⅣstage was higher than DNⅢstage(P<0.05);There was no significant difference between T2 DM group and normal group(P>0.05),The level of serum miRNA-21 in DN V stage was significantly lower than that in DN Ⅳ stage(P<0.05).In TCM syndrome differentiation,the proportion of yin deficiency and heat dryness syndrome was the lowest,qi and yin deficiency syndrome was the second(P<0.05),spleen and kidney qi deficiency syndrome and yin and yang deficiency syndrome was the highest(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference between spleen and kidney qi deficiency syndrome and yin and yang deficiency syndrome(P>0.05). The expression of serum miRNA-21 was significantly increased in the deficiency of Qi and Yin,deficiency of spleen and Kidney Qi and deficiency of Yin and Yang(P<0.05),especially in the deficiency of spleen and Kidney Qi and Yin and Yang groups(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between the deficiency of spleen and Kidney Qi group and that of Yin and Yang deficiency group(P>0.05). There were 16 cases of dampness syndrome(26.7%),15 cases of phlegm syndrome(25%),29 cases of blood stasis syndrome(48.3%). The proportion of blood stasis syndrome was the highest(P<0.05),the serum miRNA-21 of blood stasis syndrome group was the highest(P<0.05);There was no significant difference between dampness syndrome group and phlegm syndrome group(P>0.05). The results of correlation study showed that the expression of serum miRNA-21 was positively correlated with BUN、Cr、Cysc and K value of erythrocyte sedimentation rate in patients with DN Ⅲ and DN Ⅳ,and negatively correlated with eGFR;while serum miRNA-21 was only positively correlated with K value of erythrocyte sedimentation rate in DN Ⅴstage. Conclusion The expression of serum miRNA-21 was significantly different in different stages of DN,and there might be some correlation between serum miRNA-21 and some laboratory indexes of DN patients.
